@CUPackFan posted:Center is the least important position on the OL. Just look at the Eagles - lost a HOF center last offseason when Kelce retired. What happened this season? Their OL blocked for a 2,000 yard rusher, second most rushing yards in the league, the tush push was just as effective, and the Eagles are the favorites to make the Super Bowl. There's a reason why centers are rarely drafted in the first round - the position just isn't that valuable.
You just need a serviceable center. You can't pay a center unless they are true difference maker and Meyers just isn't. Broncos had decisions to pay their centers in recent year - Matt Paradis in 2019 and Lloyd Cushenberry in 2023. Both went on to sign big contracts then disappeared into obscurity. Broncos OL was never worse b/c they let them walk.
I disagree, at least somewhat. Cam Jurgens was drafted and developed to be the heir at Center behind Kelce and he's still very good. It also makes a difference if your center is responsible for line calls. With Rodgers it wasn't a big need, but there's more on the plate with Love and they do need to be in synch.
There's no way they should offer Myers big money, of course, and I'd much rather have a Flanny-quality guy there, sure, but if they feel stretched for resources to fill other positions and don't feel Monk or Glover are ready for starting jobs I could see him being back.
